Purpose

The current tenant does not wish to continue and wishes to assign the lease to a person who currently operates a Pre School from the premises. Officers have carried out usual due diligence to satisfy themselves that the proposed new tenant is capable of fulfilling the obligations under the lease.

Decision

To complete a Lease assignment for Burrsville Public Hall.

Alternative options considered

Option 1 - To allow completion of lease assignment
Option 2 - Tenant to surrender the lease - the tenant does not have sufficient funds for this option and a surrender is not necessary when assigment is considered
Option 3 - Not to allow assignment and keep the current tenant – the Council cannot withhold consent to a requested assignment unreasonably and no good reason has been discovered that could be used to oppose this request.
